Hi Joe...
What's an MZ-3? Must be a European designation? Discontinued now?
Never mind. I always do this. Visit Google.com, and find out all I need to know... The MZ-3 is not available in the U.S. - it is essentially ["all the features of"] the MZ-5n, but with shutter speeds of 1/4000 and a flash synch of 1/125 sec.
